Answer:

Any line passing through the origin represents a proportional relationship

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form $y/x=k$ or $y=kx$

In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line and<u> the line passes through the origin</u>

therefore

Any line passing through the origin represents a proportional relationship

You can tell a graph is proportional if the points form a single line and that line passes through the origin. The relationship between input and output figures will also remain the same throughout.

Answer:

x=47 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Since angle VTY is congruent to angle VTK, segment TY bisects angle VTK. Since Y is on segment VK, between V and K, we can use the Angle Bisector Theorem, which states that:

$\frac{VY}{YK}=\frac{VT}{TK}$
